3. Cleaning

Clean the refrigerator thoroughly at intervals, as

necessary. Remove the shelves; these, the

cabinet interior and the door should be washed with a

warm solution of sodium bi-carbonate. Finally wipe

over with a cloth rinsed in warm water only, and dry

with a clean cloth. Do not wash any plastic parts in

water that is more than hand warm, and do not expose

them to dry heat. The outside of the cabinet should be

wiped down regularly with a clean, damp cloth.

NEVER USE STRONG CHEMICALS OR ABRASIVE

CLEANING MATERIALS ON ANY PART OF THE

CABINET.

4. Positioning the appliance

When first using this refrigerator please consider the

following points:

ENSURE REFRIGERATOR IS LEVEL

THE PIPEWORK AT THE BACK GETS HOT IN USE

THE REFRIGERATOR HAS NO 'MOTOR' AND IS

THEREFORE VIRTUALLY SILENT

ALLOW AT LEAST 3 HRS. FOR SIGNS OF

COOLING

During the refrigeration process, the appliance

gives off heat from the condenser (under the

upper part of the rear cover) into the surrounding air.

The more ventilated the condenser is, the more

effective the refrigeration will be.

The other condition for satisfactory operation is that

the appliance is levelled. This could be checked by

placing a glass of water on top of the appliance.

It is important that the appliance is not directly

exposed to radiated heat (sunlight, radiator, near an

oven, etc.).

4.1. Installation instructions

The refrigerator is equipped with an electrically heated

absorption cooling unit which is virtually silent in

operation. The fridge is designed for free-standing

installation, but can be built-in if the following

conditions are complied with to ensure satisfactory

operation and maximum cooling efficiency.

IMPORTANT

Please follow the installation details below

carefully. Guarantee is valid for products installed

as described only.

1. The refrigerator must be le

vel both directions

2. There should be 20 mm clear

ance to the w

all

3. Ventilation must be provided as shown in

alternatives A, B, C or D (fig 2-3)

4. The ventilation duct must at least measure

105 mm x the width of the refrigerator

5. Only

the entire cooling unit must project into

the duct as shown

6. Air passing thr

ough the duct must not be

preheated by any source of heat

7. Ventilation grills, if used, must have an free

openings of at leas

t 200 cm² each

The refrigerator can be fixed to the bottom of the

furniture through its fixing feet using screws of an

appropiate length. (Fig. 4)

During installation, please ensure the mains

plug is accessible at all times.

Figure 3.

5. Using the appliance

To start the refrigerator connect the plug into a

properly earthed socket.

The cooling fins should show signs of cooling after

about 3 hours. The refrigerator needs about 6 hours

at normal ambient temperature to reach 6 °C in the

storage compartment.

5.1. Temperature regulation

The usual setting required is in the region of 2 to 3 on

the thermostat knob (Fig. 5), but this can vary with

conditions of load and installation. If it is found

necessary to alter the setting,the knob can be turned

to a higher number to produce a colder temperature,

or a lower number to produce a warmer temperature.

The effect of any adjustment can be checked by

means of the thermometer after leaving the

refrigerator operating for a further period to settle

down again.

6. ICE CUBES (If available)

Fill the ice tray to 4/5 with drinking water, and place

the ice tray on the ice-tray shelf. Wipe off any excess

water to prevent the ice tray from freezing to the

surface.

To speed up the making of ice cubes, turn the

thermostat to position 5 for a short while. Remember

to turn the dial to its normal setting when the ice cubes

are frozen.

To remove the cubes from the ice tray, hold it under

running water. The ice cubes can now be taken out

easily.

7. Useful suggestion

Do not overfill the appliance. Put warm foods

and drinks in the appliance only when they have

cooled down to room temperature. It is advisable to

leave some space between the products in the

cabinet to ensure efficient and even cooling. If the

shelves are packed too tightly there may be

unacceptable temperature variations.

8. Defrosting, cleaning and

maintenance

Frost will gradually form on the cooling surfaces

and it must not be allowed to become too thick

since it acts as an insulator and interferes with the

cooling.

This frost-formation is kept back by the FUZZY

LOGIC system built into the appliance by switching

off the unit for two hours in every 24 hours. The

frost will melt and the defrost water will run through

the drain tube from the drip channel into an

evaporating vessel located at the bottom rear of the

refrigerator. (Fig 6) The defrost water will evaporate

automatically into the circulating air and the vessel

will not need emptying manually.

If we want to switch off the unit, turn the thermostat

knob to "0", disconnect the refrigerator from the

electricity supply and leave the cabinet door open.

After defrosting the cabinet interior should be

wiped out with a clean, damp cloth.

9. Changing the lightbulb (If available)

If the lightbulb needs changing, pull out the plug

and proceed as follows:

Press the metal reflector to one side and draw the

lamp covering backwards. Replace the bulb and

push the covering back into place.

A new 10-watt bulb can be obtained at any service

shop.

10. Reversing the door hang, (Fig. 7)

Lay the appliance on its back. Remove the 8

screws (1). Remove the door, together with the two

hinges (2), from the housing.

Remove the two cover caps (3) from the housing

and place them in the open hinge holes in the

housing. Place the bottom righthand hinge in the

top left of the door and the top righthand hinge in

the bottom left of the door and hang the door on its

hinges in the open cover cap holes in the housing.

Secure the hinges and cover caps with the 8

screws.

Check that the door closes easily and is sealed

properly.

11. Replacing the decorative

door panel, (Fig. 8-10)

Remove the two screws (1) from the upper hinge of

the door.

Pull the door together with the hinge away from the

housing and up off the lower hinge bolt (2-3).

Remove screws (4) and pull off the frame edge (5).

Slide the decorative panel (6) out of the door frame

and insert the new panel (7), so that the upper edge

of the panel runs exactly parallel to the upper edge of

the frame. A new panel can be inserted more easily

into the upper edge of the frame when the two corners

are cut off by approx. 5 x 5mm (8). Put the frame edge

(5) back in place and secure with screws.

Place the door on the lower hinge (9), slot the upper

hinge into the opening, press together with the door

against the housing and secure with the two screws

(11).
